Good news – you no longer have to wait for you wife/girlfriend, or overly enthusiastic husband/boyfriend to hit up Trader Joe’s for your beloved hummus.

You also don’t have to pay the ridiculous prices most “health food” grocers ask for it.

I’ve decided to share a quick and easy recipe that’ll have you making your own batch of hummus faster that you can heat up the pita bread you dip into it with. There’s no tahini (or for the less fancy way of saying it, sesame seed paste) in this, but it still makes a damn good hummus nonetheless.

For now, it’s important to remember the sheer amount of nutrient density chickpeas have, in relation to being a good source of carbs, proteins, and minerals. The other ingredients listed are also great sources of minerals, fats, and antioxidants, with salt of course being a great source of sodium, among other things.

Hummus is a great snacking alternative when you’re feeling peckish, particularly when you’re on a cut or prefer to avoid going overboard with carbs and imbalanced polyunsaturated fats you’d usually get from toxic/empty calories (i.e. most junk food you see these days).

And now time to plug away (these muscles ain’t gonna feed themselves)…

If you liked this recipe, share it.
